You have our sympathy from QL Today. We know how it feels to deliver a
magazine late to the readers.
As I mentioned in an earlier email you have also had similar problems in
your scout duties and are grossly overworked at the moment.
I hope all Quanta members will be patient and understanding and learn a
lesson from this. John Gilpin is the linchpin of Quanta. Many of his duties
involve a specialist knowledge so it is not easy for someone to step in and
help him out temporarily.
This was a crisis that was waiting to happen and was inevitable when for
three years you have had a seriously undermanned committee.
Best Wishes,
Geoff

In an effort to avoid any erroneous "Grapevine" comments causing concern
to QUANTA Members (and others) I am making the following statement on
behalf of the current QUANTA Committee:-
"Due to not receiving any response to communications sent to our new
Magazine Editor - Tony Hill - over a now considerable period, this
committee have asked John Gilpin - QUANTA Treasurer and Membership
Secretary - to stand in again as Joint Magazine editor until (at least)
the AGM in April 2009. The other Joint Editor's position will remain with
John Mason.
In order to notify you all of details for the forthcoming Celebration
Workshop and AGM in April 2009, John G has agreed to publish Quanta
Magazines for August/September/October 2008, (a three month's issue), and
November/December 2008/January 2009 (another three month's issue). This
will bring us up to the end of Volume 25. He has also agreed to publish a
Magazine for February/March 2009 which will be our "Celebration Issue" -
QUANTA will be 25 years old in February 2009."
